A call from the wild! Another good month. anit your
letters coming! As for me, my wife and | had a baby
boy on September 16. So if {| seem a bit tired, that's
the reason. This month | will begin the first of two
parts on the ROM character generator.
Character Generator BASIC ROM—Table. The
character generator table in the BASIC ROM is a
set of 8 x 64 = 512 bytes beginning at address
7680(1E00H) and ending at address 8191(1FFFH).
There are 64 characters defined for the T/S 1000
in the table. Each set of 8 bytes names one
character. Stack the 8 bytes, one on top of the
other, and you will see how the character is
“drawn.”
oul a
i
f

be
vebdl,
Let's look at an example. If you were to PEEK bytes
7680 to 7687 you would find 8 bytes, all zeroes.
The first 8 bytes are used to generate the first
character in the T/S 1000 character set. Think of
the 8 bytes stacked one under the other and
convert from decimal to binary:
(PEEK 7680) =0=| 00000000 |
(PEEK 7681) =0=| 00000000 |
(PEEK 7682) =0=| 00000000 |
(PEEK 7683) =O0=| 00000000 |
(PEEK 7684) =0=| 00000000 |
(PEEK 7685) =0=| 00000000 |
(PEEK 7686) =0=| 00000000 |
(PEEK 7687) =0={ 00000000 |
The arrangement of characters shown in the box is
how the computer “draws” the characters “space.”
The zeros represent blank space. Now, since each
8 bytes represents a single character, let's figure
out how to-find the start address of any character in
the table.
10 INPUT A$
20 LET CHARADDR = 7680+8*CODE A$
Therefore, the start in the character generator table
address of the character “A” is:
DOES 3 JUNGLE JIM USE A GORILLA PRINTER?
CHARADOR = 7680 + 8 * CODE "A" =
7680 + 8 * 38 = 7984
Let's see the way the computer draws this
character:
(PEEK 7984) =0= | 00000000 |
(PEEK 7985) =60= | 00111100)
(PEEK 7986) =66= | 01000010|
(PEEK 7987) =66= | 01000010 |
(PEEK 7988) =126= | 01111110
(PEEK 7989) =66= | 01000010 |
(PEEK 7990) =66= | 01000010 |
(PEEK 7991) =O= | 00000000 |
Doesn't it look like the “A” printed on the TV screen
or the printer? Here’s a program to draw the
characters in large letters on the screen:
5 CLS
10 PRINT “WHAT CHARACTER?”
15 INPUT A$
17. IF CODE A$ > 63 THEN GOTO 5

FASSWORD SECURITY
by John Kemeny
This article could iso be
titled “if you break my ade you
will break my heart.” The BREAK
key is used to interrust a BASIC
erogras. The program halts with
some @rror report on the bottom
ef the screen. In fact, the
STOP statement is just a type of
BREAK. Machine code programs
ordinarily can not use the BREAK
feature.
In many applications you do
not want the user to be able to
BREAK into your program. For
example, you may not want the
clerk entering sales slips into
a@ program that calculates pay-
roll commissions to have access
to sensitive salary data. But
more generally, you don’t users
who accidentally hit BREAK to be
confronted with a screenful of
listings.
The T/S 2066 has a siaple
way to keep users from BREAKing
@ program, namely by inserting,
as the first program line:
10 ON ERR 60 TO 10
This causes conditions which
would otherwise generate an
~wror report to execute 60 TO 10
nstead. Interestingly, @ normal
ermination, where the programa
goes past the last line, will
halt the program--so put a STOF
atatement at the end when using
this technique. ‘
Unfortunately, this siaple
technique prevents anvone from
BREAKing a running program. A
better method would allow users
who tnew a “secret” password to
be able to stor the program. The
following short routine does
just that.
10 ON ERR GO TO 9000
20 REM your program here
z0 GO TO 20
9000 REM password routine
9010 LET p$="secret"
9020 BEEP 1,1
9030 LET qt=a"“
9040 LET a®-INKEYS
9050 IF aGeINKEYS THEN GO TO
9050
9060 LET qt=q$+as
9070 IF LEN p$>LEN q@ THEN 6C TO
9040
9060 IF pté=qs THEN ON ERR RESET
9090 ON ERR CONTINUE
The variable pt holds the
password and can be changed to
any string. Lines 7050 to 9070
are used to debounce the user’s
input. It takes advantage of the
fact that null string “" can be
added to the input qs at will.
he BEEP at 9020 is necessary to
Stagicate to the user to start
entering the password. This is
because the BREAK feature is
disabled while in the routine,
so the user can get out of sync.

8-16K Switch for Cheetah 64K Rampacks
by Doug Hoiles
Last year I purchased the English made
Cheetah 64 kilobyte rampack for the sole reason
of its very low price. Fortunately, it turned out
to be a good quality unit, but with two flaws:
virtually no documentation and no way to switch
out the 8-16k block to enable the use of other
add-on peripherals that operate from ROMs per-
manently wired to use this address space. This
was no problem initially, but about 6 months
later I purchased a word processor module with
ROM software that occupied this space. Natu-
rally they were incompatible, My options were
to buy a new, smaller RAM that did not occupy
this space, buy a switchable RAM for well over
$100, write only very short letters (under 2K), or
figure out for myself how to modify the Cheetah
to switch out the 8-!6K block. I chose the
latter, but considering how little I knew about
computer logic, it wasn't easy.
First, I had to study the board and draw a
schematic.. I probably did not need the entire
schematic, but not knowing what I was doing, |
figured that too much information was better
than not enough, so 1 effectively completed it. I
then borrowed a Texas Instruments TTL hand-
book that showed the function of the logic chips
in the package so I could decode the operation of
the device. 1 also had to contact MOSTEC for
information on their 64k dynamic RAMs. T still
do not know how everything works, but I was
able to figure out which traces had to be cut and
where to attach the jumper wires to the DPDT
switch which I mounted through a small hole cut
in the back of the case. On the second try! I
still do not know why my first try was unsuccess-
ful, but I have two short pieces of wire rejoining
traces erroneously cut that first time. It looks
kind of messy, but it works.
If you wish to make this modification for
yourself, here is how to go about it. There are
probably other ways that would work too as
there are usually more than one way to do
something in digital logic, but this approach
works by blanking the column adjust strobe to
pin 15 of all RAM chips when it would otherwise
be strobing the 0-16k addresses, thus preventing
"refresh" of the dynamic memory. 0-8k must
also be blanked since the Sinclair ROM works in
these addresses and is so blanked in the factory
unit, 1 will not cover the theory of the logic
further as that would be too lengthy, but I will
be happy to discuss this with anyone who wishes
to call me at (408) 737-1776, at least to the
limited extent of my understanding.
First, buy the smallest double pole, double
throw switch that you can find. I! mounted a
slide switch on the inside of the back of the case
so that the slide just barely sticks above the
surface of the case through the hole I cut in it.
The switch stays with the board on dissassembly
and is secured to the case with two small woo.
screws which, when assembled, screw into twe
¥"lengths of 3/16 dowels glued to the switch or
you could probably use sheet metal screws thru
the wing holes. You will also need some short
lengths of small gauge, flexible wire, I used 22
gauge wire because I had some handy,.but |
recommend 28 gauge stranded with thin insula-
tion for flexibility and ease of wiring. It must,
of course, be solderable.
Next, remove the board from the case. See
figure 1. The top eight ICs are 64 kilobit
dynamic RAMs. The bottom five ICs contain the
decoding and addressing logic. The left two ICs
are 74LS157s and serve primarily to direct data
to or from the correct addresses in the RAMs,
The next two are 74LS139s and it is in this area
that you must modify the existing circuit and
attach the new switch leads, Figure 2 is a front
view of IC4 (showing parts of IC3 and IC5) and
shows a trace which must be cut running fro:n
in 14 of IC4, between pins 3 and 4 of IC5 to
ROMCS (pin 23, bottom) on the edge connector.
The other trace which must be cut is on the bark
of the board and is shown in figure 3 running
from pin 14 of IC4 to pin 12 of 1C3. Cut the
leads where shown as pin 12 of IC3 and pin #4 of
iC4 must be isolated from each other as wei: 4s
from the edge connector,
Four wires to the switch and two jumpers on
the switch all solder on the back of the board
and the detai! in figure 3 should be adequate to
show you how to wire it. Use the schematic and
the detail of the 7415139 chio and you should

have no trouble figuring out where to cut and
where to solder. If unsure use an ohm meter to
trace all leads before cutting or attaching your
leads. All that you are doing is changing the
ROMGS output signal from pin 12 to pin 13 of
1C3 in the “out" position and back to pin 12 in
the "in" position. In both switch positions, this
output signal goes to pin 14 of C4 and to the
edge connector.
I should point out a possible problem before
turning you loose. While my word processor
module works fine occupying this address space
with the switch in the "out" position, my Hunter
CMOS RAM board does not. [t works fine by
itself, but not with the Cheetah. I have not yet
taken the time to determine if it is a decoding
problem with my modification or an unrelated
problem, but if you wish to make the modifica-
tion for this use, you may want to investigate
further before acting.
As with any modifications to hardware, |
take no responsibility if it does not work, you do
it wrong or if Cheetah may have modified the
circuit so things are possibily not as described
(unlikely), Work slowly, be careful, understand
before you cut, check with someone else before
acting if you have any doubts and you should
have no problems.
